UPS has this chain thing for measurements, but if the critter is over 70 lbs then it goes into a overweight class, my 1st. Q. is is that antenna a type you can separate like a pool stick ? I may expect obviously not , so you may wish to check all carriers for something like that. Burlington Air Freight , FED EX , just to name a few off the top. when I worked shipping at night we configured box packaging and tape and more tape , they were shipped in the right company.
